FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Financials are only partially disclosed.

 

The sales volume for Nov/2006 fiscal term amounted to Yen 330 million, a 16% up from Yen 284 million in the previous term.  After inventory adjustment in the previous term, the business came back to normal earnings level.  Business is seen increasing.  Weaker Yen also contributed.    The net profit was posted at Yen 6 million, up from Yen 5 million a year ago.

 

For the current term ending Nov 2007 the net profit is projected to mark time at Yen 6 million, on a 2% rise in turnover, to Yen 350 million.

 

The financial situation is considered RATHER WEAK but should be good for MODERATE business engagements.  The proposed amount is considered TOO HIGH from the recent financial status.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 5 million, on 30 days normal terms.
